Just got this gem today:
Tough Love vs. Spanking - Good Argument
Most of the American populace thinks it improper to spank
children, so I have tried other methods to control my kids
when they have one of 'those moments.'
One that I found effective is for me to just take the
child for a car ride and talk.
Some say it's the vibration from the car, others say
it's the time away from any distractions such as TV, Video
Games, Computer, IPod, etc.
Either way, my kids usually calm down and stop misbehaving after
our car ride together. Eye to eye contact helps a lot too.
I've included a photo below of one of my sessions with my
son, in case you would like to use the technique.
Sincerely,
Your Friend
PS - This works with grandchildren, nieces,and nephews as well.
